This seems to be Wells Fargo’s opinion, expressed in this quote:\n\n “The bear case sees more of a winner-take-most situation. [...] Internet and mobile-based industries tend to favor first movers, who become incumbents and are well capitalized to grow market share. [...] That case sets up well for Netflix [...], Apple and Amazon.”\n\nThe argument here is that, should the streaming pie fail to grow as many expect, “the big wigs” in tech and media are likely to push smaller players out.

From a P&L perspective, it is a stretch to think that the Prime family of streaming services can put much of a dent on the bottom line, considering the high content costs.\nBut as we explained a few months ago, streaming can be the hook that incentivizes consumers to sign up for Prime service — and this is good for Amazon’s much larger e-commerce division. Think of former CEO Jeff Bezos’ quote: “when we win a Golden Globe, it helps us to sell more shoes”.\nSo, one indirect (but arguably more meaningful) way to measure the success of Amazon’s efforts in streaming is to look at the company’s Prime user base.
